Why should we demand that faithful friends tell us – in our faces – what we hate to hear?

Khaalid Bin Hayyaan narrated from Jafar Bin Burqaan [may Allah have mercy upon them] who said, “Maymoon Bin Mihraan [may Allah have mercy upon him] said to me, ‘Oh, Jafar! Say what I detest (i.e. the bitter truth) in my face since a man will not have (fulfilled) advice to his brother until he says in his face what he detests”. (1)

Umar Ibn Abdul Azeez [may Allah have mercy upon him] said, “Whoever advises his brother to rectify affairs related to his religion and gives him insight into a worldly affair has perfected their relationship and fulfilled his obligation of (brotherhood) to him”. (2)

Imaam Al-Barbahaaree [may Allah have mercy upon him] said, “It is not permissible to hide sincere advice from any of the Muslims, whether pious or impious, in matters of the religion. Whoever hides that has acted deceitfully towards the Muslims. Whoever acts deceitfully toward the Muslims has done so towards the religion. Whoever acts deceitfully towards the religion has behaved treacherously towards Allah, His Messenger, and the Believers”.

Al-Allaamah Ahmad Bin Yahyah An-Najmi [may Allah have mercy upon him] said: “I say: An-Naseehah means ‘purity’. When milk is clear, it is said, [نصح اللبن]. This is the linguistic meaning of An-Naseehah. In the Sharee’ah, (it is) to inform a Muslim regarding what is obligated to him in relation to the (rights of Allah) and (the rights of Allah’s) creation without slyness and false courtesy. An-Naseehah is obligatory, even though its obligation varies, and its opposite is Al-Ghish [deception]”. (3)

Has Yahyah Al-Hajuri Al-Haddaadi Openly Repented from One of These Excesses?!

Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen [may Allaah have mercy upon him] stated in his Tafseer of Juz Amma that (Allaah began with the mention) of Abu Lahab’s two hands: “Perish the two hands of Abu Lahab” because they are the instruments of work and movement, giving and taking.

Likewise, we find the scholars mentioning that Allaah rebuked Abu Lahab with this great rebuke, which is ignominy for him in this life and the next- a complete loss and wretchedness, and he will achieve no success. He died a disbeliever and was not benefited by his worldly possessions.

Yahyah Al-Haddaadi [may Allaah guide him] supplicated against Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari [may Allaah preserve him], whilst seeking to defend his Haddaadiyyah: Click here and listen here:

The Messenger [peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him] said: “The over-stringent ones are destroyed”. Imaam Nawawi [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said, “The over-stringent ones are those who look too deeply (into affairs) and are excessive- those who exceed the Hudood [prescribed legislated sharia boundaries] in their statements and actions”.

Some Reasons Behind Increase In Reward On Deeds and The Heavy Weight of Ahlus Sunnah’s Deeds

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Aqeedah (Creed & Belief), Monotheism - Tawheed, Purification of The Soul, Scholars of Islam, The Salaf - Pious Predecessors, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Some Reasons Behind Increase In Reward On Deeds, Why Ahlus Sunnah’s Deeds Become Heavier Even if little and Ahlul Bidah’s Deeds Become Lighter Even If Numerous

Imaam As-Sadi [may Allaah have mercy upon him] was asked: What are the means and deeds by way of which reward is increased?

Answer: As for the increase of reward for a good deed to ten times the like thereof, this occurs in every righteous action, as Allaah [The Most High] said: [مَن جَآءَ بِٱلۡحَسَنَةِ فَلَهُ ۥ عَشۡرُ أَمۡثَالِهَا‌ۖ   – Whoever brings a good deed shall have ten times the like thereof to his credit]. [Surah Al-An’aam. Aayah 160]

As for an increase beyond this, it has its ways (and means). It can either be related to the performer of the deed (himself or herself) or the deed itself, or the time and the place [i.e., a specific time and place mentioned in the authentic Sharee’ah texts that reward for good deeds are increased in that time period or place].

One of the most important means of increasing (reward for good deeds) is when a person fulfils sincerity to Allaah and adheres to the path of the Messenger [peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him].  This (increase is received) when a deed is legislated [i.e., in the Sharee’ah and not innovated] and the person intends to please Allaah and hopes for His Reward- when this intention is firmly established as the drive and goal behind the deed – due to the person’s belief in Allaah, belief in the Messenger, (obedience) to the command of Allaah, seeking Allaah’s Countenance and Pleasure, just as it has been mentioned in a number of Aayaat and Ahaadeeth. Allaah [The Most High]: [إِنَّمَا يَتَقَبَّلُ ٱللَّهُ مِنَ ٱلۡمُتَّقِينَ – Verily, Allah accepts only from those who are Al-Muttaqun] [Surah al-Maa’idah. Ayah 27] Meaning:  Those who fear Allaah whilst performing deeds with sincerity and adhering to the authentic path of the Messenger.

Also, the Messenger said, “Whoever fasts the month of Ramadhaan, his previous (minor) sins will be forgiven”. “And whoever stands (in the night prayer) during Ramadan out of faith and seeking reward (from Allaah), then all of his previous (minor) sins will be forgiven”. (1) and other texts besides these. And because of this, the apparent actions have more virtue over one another in the sight of Allaah due to the faith and sincerity in the hearts.

Also abandoning the forbidden desires of the soul is included amongst those righteous actions that have virtue over one another due to the different levels of sincerity, if a (person) sincerely abandons them from the bottom of his heart and not out of other than sincerity. The story of the companions of the cave [i.e. in Surah Al-Kahf] is bears witness to this. (2)

Therefore, the means to increasing (reward) is the basis and foundation we have already mentioned, such as sound creed, a strong belief in Allaah and in His Attributes, a strong desire (to worship Allaah) and a fervent desire for goodness. That is because Ahlus Sunnah Wal Jamaa’ah -in truth – and those people of knowledge, who possess knowledge of the perfect and details of the Names and Attributes of Allaah and have a strong desire to meet Allaah (in the Afterlife), the reward for their deeds are greatly increased in a manner in which others who share the same religion can neither reach nor approach in the least. And this is why the pious predecessors used to say, “When Ahlus Sunnah are held back by their deeds [i.e. not having numerous deeds], they are supported by their sound creed”. (3)

Imaam Ibn Rajab [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said: The increase of reward (on a deed) is estimated in accordance with the perfection of a person’s Islaam and strength of sincerity in that action”. [4]

Obesity In Some Muslim Countries

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Contemporary Issues.

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Reported in arabiya news by Jennifer Bell, Al Arabiya English: Almost 60 pct of Saudi population overweight, obese. Almost 60 percent of Saudi Arabia’s adult population are either overweight or obese, according to the latest figures revealed ahead of World Obesity Day – but the Kingdom still fairs better than its GCC neighbors.

According to the Global Obesity Observatory, 20.2 percent of people in the Kingdom are classed as obese – having a Body Mass Index (a person’s weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters) over 30 – while a further 38.2 percent are classed as overweight (a BMI over 25).

However, Saudi Arabia has the least prevalence of obesity in the GCC.
Kuwait has the highest prevalence – with almost 80 percent of its population overweight or obese – followed by Bahrain (72.4 percent), Qatar (70.1 percent), the UAE (67.9 percent) and Oman (66.2 percent).

When it comes to children, 10.5 percent of the under-18 population in Saudi Arabia is either overweight or obese, compared to half (49.5 percent) of children in Kuwait.

The global prevalence of obesity has increased manifold in the past few decades and the Middle Eastern regions notably are reporting extremely high obesity rates. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), obesity rates have nearly tripled since 1975 and five times in children and adolescents. It is a problem that affects people of all ages.

Sedentary lifestyle, lack of physical exercise and high calorie diets are common contributory factors to the increasing prevalence of obesity. [End o quote]

No Bigoted Attachment to Personalities Amongst UK Salafiyyoon

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Brotherhood, Contemporary Issues, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Purification of The Soul.

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Al-Allamah Zayd Bin Hadi Al-Mad’khali, may Allah have mercy upon him, stated:

There is no (unrestricted or unconditional) allegiance except to Allah’s Messenger, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, because he is infallible and never speaks out of his desires. As for unrestricted allegiance to personalities whether they are correct or mistaken, this is not permissible for the seeker of knowledge. On the other hand, he should look to such and such Shaikhs as to which of them is upon uprightness and is following the methodology of the pious predecessors. This is the one whom we place our hands on his hands- not out of blameworthy blind following, rather due to the fact that he is upon the truth. So we agree with him upon truth and follow a singular path in obedience to the statement of Allah, The Mighty and Majestic:

[وَأَنَّ هَٰذَا صِرَاطِي مُسْتَقِيمًا فَاتَّبِعُوهُ ۖ وَلَا تَتَّبِعُوا السُّبُلَ فَتَفَرَّقَ بِكُمْ عَن سَبِيلِهِ – And verily, this is my Straight Path, so follow it, and follow not (other) paths, for they will separate you away from His Path] [6:153]

As for the one who selects Shaikhs, leaders and guides, whilst being in agreement with them- in what is correct and wrong- to the extent that they do not leave their methodology whether they are correct or wrong, these are the people who bring evil upon themselves and others. If they do not repent, they are most worthy of being blamed. Thus, the matter – and all praise belongs to Allah- is clear and it is not permissible for a person to be in confusion regarding this . We are with those who follow the straight path-we follow a singular path which Allah, The Mighty and Majestic, has commanded us to follow and which the messenger called us to. Those you follow the wrong path or are mistaken in many matters, or in some, we leave him [i.e. we leave his mistakes]. None is followed in everything except the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him. As for the people, they can be correct or mistaken. Indeed, we do not follow them and we do not follow their footsteps solely because they are Shaikhs, callers to Islam, leaders or guides; instead, you should be with the people of the Salafi Methodology -those who follow the correct methodology and understanding.(1)

The UK Salafiyyoon and their well-known brothers in other regions of the earth stood firm against the Qutubiyyah, the Sooriyyah, the Ikhwaanees, the Hajaawirah, the figureheads of Bidah (such as Abdur Rahmaan Abdul Khaaliq, Salmaan Al-Awdah, Safar Al-Hawali, Abul Hasan Al-Maribi, Ali Al-Halabi, Yahyah Al-Hajuri, Muhammad Al-Maghraawi) and their staunch followers. They do not even tolerate the transgression of those who have not been declared innovators, such as the likes of Muhammad Bin Haadi and his ilk. Indeed, our brothers at Maktabah Salafi have been at the forefront of the battle against all the heads of Bidah in the UK, stood firm and transmitted the verdicts of the senior scholars against all the heads of Bidah and the transgressors. During all the trials related to Manhaj and Aqeedah – by the Tawfeeq of Allaah, the elders at Salafipublications and the Maraakiz neither gave precedence to falsehood nor allowed its adherents to beautify it; neither sought to find lame excuses for the promoters of falsehood nor the oppressors; neither entertained blind following nor allowed the status of anyone to take precedence over the truth; rather they and their well-known brothers in the other regions of the world- due to following the footsteps of the scholars of Sunnah – have constantly aided the people of Sunnah, work tirelessly to maintain unity and allegiance to the Sunnah. This is what Al-Allaamah Ubaid Bin Abdillaah Al-Jaabiri [may Allaah have mercy upon him], Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadi Al-Mad’khali [may Allaah preserve him] and others know about Salafipublications and their brothers in the UK, and this is – to this day – manifest for everyone to see. May Allaah continue to unite all the Salafiyyoon upon the sound Aqeedah and the sound Manhaj stances, protect them from all the causes of differing in Aqeedah and Manhaj, increase the love and compassion between them, and continue to guide the masses to this bless Manhaj Aameen. Whoever claims or insinuates that the UK Salafiyyoon are guilty of bigoted attachment to any personality or individual, then either he does not understand what bigoted attachment necessitates or he is guilty of slander, and may Allaah guide him Aameen.

[4] Setting The Record Straight – [Path to Acquiring Knowledge – By Imaam Muhammad Ibn Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen and Al-Allaamah Ubaid Al-Jaabiri]

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Contemporary Issues, Methodology - 'Manhaj', Pearls of Wisdom, Scholars of Islam, Seeking Knowledge, Worship - 'Ibaadah'.

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Imaam Muhammad Bin Saaleh Al-Uthaymeen [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said that from that which is obligated on a student of knowledge to comply with is that he acquires knowledge directly from the Shaikhs, for indeed he will reach -by way of that- several benefits as follows:

*The path to acquiring knowledge will be shortened for him instead of moving from one book to another whilst trying to find out the view that carries more weight (in a particular subject matter) and the reason behind it; also trying to find out the weak view in (that particular subject matter) and the reason behind it. Instead of going through all this, the teacher will give him what he seeks after through an easy path, present to him – two, three or more than three – different views of the people of knowledge together with a clarification of the view that carries more weight and the proof. Indeed, there is no doubt that this is beneficial (or advantageous) for the student.

*He will be facilitated with the ability to grasp a subject matter quickly, because when the student of knowledge reads to a scholar, he will grasp the subject matter many times quicker than when he reads books (on his own). That is because when he read books, he may come across difficult and obscure statements (or expressions), so he needs contemplation and repetition, which requires time and effort, and he may understand those statements wrongly and then act upon them.

*Close connection (or attachment) between the students of knowledge and the erudite scholars- junior people of knowledge attached to senior people of knowledge.

These are from the benefits of acquiring knowledge directly from the Shaikhs; but as mentioned earlier, it is obligated on a person to choose a scholar who is reliable, trustworthy and strong – one who has real knowledge and understanding and not superficial knowledge; truthful and firm in fulfilling what is entrusted to him and known for fulfilling acts of worship, for indeed a student follows the footsteps of his teacher. [Sharh Hilyati Taalibil Ilm. pages 105-106. slightly paraphrased].

Question to Al-Allaamah Ubaid Bin Abdillaah Al-Jaabiri [may Allaah have mercy upon him]: Is it permissible for the one who seeks knowledge from some Shaikh – by way of books and audios – to say to him [i.e. the Shaikh], “Our Shaikh” and thus he becomes a Shaikh of his?

Answer: There’s no harm in considering someone as one’s Shaikh, but I bring your attention to the fact that there are two ways of acquiring knowledge. The first path is seeking knowledge in person and sitting to acquire knowledge from the scholar directly- sitting in his presence, learn good manners from him and good Tarbiyah. This is the ideal way and the loftiest. This is the way of the Sahaabah in acquiring knowledge from their Prophet [peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him]- those who were with him in Madeenah and those who traveled to him. They acquired knowledge directly from the Prophet and taught their people. Likewise, this is how the Taabi’oon acquired knowledge from the Sahaabah- took knowledge (directly) from the Sahaabah, especially the seniors. Likewise, those who followed the Taabi’een did the same up to this era of ours. This is the correct and loftiest path of acquiring knowledge from a Shaikh.

The second path is to acquire knowledge from books and audios. There is no harm in this and it benefits, but it does not contain that which is found in the first method; rather it is for a woman and the one who is unable because of the difficulty in reaching the Shaikh due to distance, for one may not be able to sit in the presence of a scholar even in his own country. Not all women are able-some of them are sometimes able and unable at other times, and some are not able. So, these people benefit [i.e. from the books & tapes], but also they are not advised to enter into challenging (or very difficult) issues related to differences of opinion between the scholars; rather they entrust those affairs to the people of knowledge. And whoever is a teacher – one who gives instructions in knowledge (i.e. nurtures others) or an Imaam of a Masjid in his city district or town, we advise him to be at the service of the people and that he takes those questions of theirs which he is able to answer and respond to them in his city district. And those questions that carry difference of opinion and requires investigation, he offers his services to the people by sending those questions to the people of knowledge and take answers from them. This is a good service with regards to the Muslim helping another Muslim. [paraphrased] Listen to audio here: https://safeshare.tv/x/aIVf6vxUqh8#

All praise is due to Allaah, many Salafi Masaajid and Centres either have a resident student or a student who travels to them. Do not cling to books and abandon the study circles. Do not be like those youth who frown and are filled with a sense of false independence when told to take knowledge directly from those who are known to the scholars. May Allaah protect us from self-amazement Aameen.

Two Criminals Refute Each Other and Support Each Other- [Brief Reflection On The State of The Khabeeth Muhammad Hijaab and The Raafidi!]

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Aqeedah (Creed & Belief), Bid'ah (Innovation), Contemporary Issues, Da'wah - Calling To Islam, Deviated Callers & Individuals, Deviated Groups, Sects and Parties, Innovations In Islam (Bidah), Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Refutations, Sahaabah, Salaf As Saalih (Pious Predecessors), Shi'a, Sin.

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Shaikh Abu Khadeejah [may Allaah preserve him] stated – in his refutation against the Khabeeth Muhammad Hijaab – that Hijaab was rebutted by the Raafidi, so a misguided one utilised falsehood to rebut another misguided one! Indeed, this statement of Shaikh Abu Khadeejah reminds us of what Shaikhul Islaam ibn Taymiyyah [may Allaah have mercy upon him] as follows: “The people of bidah, such as the khawaarij, initiate an innovation in religion, excommunicate the one who opposes them and declare lawful the shedding of his blood. These people refute the innovation of each other, whilst he (i.e. the refuter) is also an innovator. So he refutes a bidah with another bidah and falsehood with falsehood”. (1)

Firstly, Subhaanallaah! A Raafidi Khabeeth refutes Hijaab with falsehood, whilst Hijaab is also upon falsehood, rather – as Shaikh Abu Khadeejah stated – Hijaab attempted to argue based on logic instead of referring back to the Kitaab and the Sunnah and then ended up agreeing with the Raafidi’s view that he can revile Aa’isha and Mu’aawiyah [may Allaah be pleased with them] and referring to the Raafidi as Habeebee, and thus the two criminals – Hijaab and the Raafidi – supported each other. Allaah [The Exalted] said: [وَكَذَٲلِكَ نُوَلِّى بَعۡضَ ٱلظَّـٰلِمِينَ بَعۡضَۢا بِمَا كَانُواْ يَكۡسِبُونَ – And thus We do make the wrong doers (supporters and helpers) one to another (in committing crimes etc.), because of that which they used to earn]. [Surah Al-An’aam. Aayah 129]

Imaam Al-Barbahaaree [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said, “He who loves the deeds of a people, good or bad, is just like the one who commits them”. Al-Allaamah Saaleh Al-Fawzaan [may Allaah preserve him]commented on the above statement of Imaam Al-Barbahaaree as follows, “He who loves the deeds of a people is just like one who commits them; so if those (deeds) are good he gets a reward similar to theirs, and if those (deeds) are bad he bears the burden and sin similar to theirs. We seek Allaah’s refuge from that! And due to this, it has been reported concerning the one that wishes to be like the scholar who teaches the people good, that he will get a reward similar to that of (that Scholar). And the one that wishes to be like the rich person who spends his wealth in the path of Allah, (then) he will receive a reward similar to that of (that rich person) in accordance with his intention. Likewise, the opposite of this is (with regards) to the one who wishes to be like the criminal and the people of sin, (and) wishes to be their partners in sin or give support to their views and hold it to be true, (then) he is like them even if he did not commit an act similar to theirs, (but) solely (due to the fact that) he held their views to be correct and took their side. [It-haaful Qaaree Bitta’liqaat Alaa Sharhis Sunnah Lil Imaam Barbahaaree’ Vol: 2. page 113-114]

Secondly, even if Hijaab defended the Sunnah, he is not one to be associated with until he abandons his bidah, as Imaam Ahmad [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said, “Do not sit with ahlul kalaam even if they defend the Sunnah”. (2)

Al-Haafidh Ibn Abdul Barr [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said, “The people upon the correct understanding of the religion and those who cling to the (authentic) narrations of the [Messenger (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) and that of the pious predecessors] in all the regions are agreed that ahlul kalaam are people of Bidah and deviation. (All the scholars of the authentic Sunnah) do not consider them to be from those who have been given sound understanding in the religion; rather the scholars are those who adhere to the (authentic) narrations of the [Prophet and that of the pious predecessors] and they have been given sound understanding in that”. (3)

Finally, we say to those duped by the Khabeeth Muhammad Hijaab that Imaam Al-Awzaa’ee [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said, “O Muslims! Fear Allaah, accept the advice of the sincere advisers and the admonition of the admonishers. know that this knowledge is religion, so beware of what you do, from whom you take your religion, the one you follow and the one with whom your religion is safe, because indeed all the proponents of religious innovation are all falsifiers, liars and sinners. They are not cautious – neither do they pay attention nor do they fear, and together with that they are not to be trusted that they would not distort what you hear. They say what they do not know with regards to what they disapprove and when proclaiming their lies; but Allaah (knows, hears and sees) what they do. Therefore, be cautious of them, trust them not, reject them and avoid them, because indeed this is what your earlier scholars did and commanded, and likewise the righteous ones who came thereafter. Be careful of opposing Allaah and being the means to destroying the religion He has ordained – breaking its commands and prohibitions, nullifying and weaking it by respecting the innovators in religious affairs and those who initiate that which is not from the religion, because you know what has been transmitted (i.e. the prohibitions) about respecting or exalting them. And what can be greater respect and exaltation than acquiring your religion from them- following and believing them, drawing close to them and assisting them in enticing the ones they entice and woo to their views and the religion (i.e. religious innovations) they follow. This is sufficient to be regarded as associates of theirs in what they do. (4)

Brief Acquaintance With Afghani Scholar, Shaikh Jameel Ar-Rahmaan – (By Shaikh Abdullah Al-Bukhaari), and a Claim of The Astray Groups After Murdering Him – (By Shaikh Rabee Bin Haadi)

Written by Salafi Dawah Manchester on . Posted in Brotherhood, Contemporary Issues, Deviated Callers & Individuals, Morals and Manners - 'Akhlaaq', Purification of The Soul, Refutations, Scholars of Islam.

In The Name of Allaah, The Most Merciful, The Bestower of Mercy.

Shaikh Abdullaah Al-Bukhaari [may Allaah preserve him] said about Shaikh Jameel Ar-Rahmaan [may Allaah have mercy upon him]:

He was a scholar and a teacher; active in calling to the Book and the Sunnah; [manifested] opposition against Bidah and waged war against it; made every effort to manifest Tawheed and the Sunnah. He spoke little, kept quiet a lot and reflected much. He was a person of [good] etiquettes and lofty manners alongside a great deal of humility. He was a [person] of careful thought and consideration; a worshipper; [a man] of Zuhd and eager in spreading Sunni-Salafi learning. He established an institute called Al-Ma’had Ash-Shar’ee Li-I’daad Ad-Du’aat in Peshawar. A number of callers (to Islaam) studied in this institute and its aim was to facilitate callers [to Islaam] with sound knowledge of the sharee’ah – founded upon the Qur’aan and the Sunnah. And the affair was just as he [rahimahullaah] intended. And from the efforts of the institute was the publication of Salafi Books and among those books were “Manhaj Wa Diraasaat Li-Aayaat al-Asmaa Was-Sifaat” written by Imaam Muhammad Al-Ameen Ash-Shanqeetee [may Allaah have mercy upon him], “Usool Fil Bid’ah Was-Sunan” written by Al-Allaamah Muhammad Ahmad Al-Adawi [may Allaah have mercy upon him] -a beneficial and good treatise; and also the book written by Al-Allaamah Muhammad Sultaan Al-Masoomee Al-Makki [may Allaah have mercy upon him] titled, “Is The Muslim Obliged to Follow a Specific Mad’hab From The Four Mad’habs” and many other books besides them.

These efforts infuriated Ahlul Bidah amongst the hizbiyyeen [the illegal partisans] and those affiliated with them; so they pondered, contemplated and masterminded his killing. They embarked upon that which gives a clear indication of their malicious intentions and rage against the Sunnah and its people. They waged war against the caller to Tawheed and Sunnah-the one who erected the true flag of Jihaad [i.e. during the Soviet-Afghan war -1979- 1989]. So, they besieged Sheikh Jameel and surrounded his people, and they sought the aid of the evil and aggressive people- every vandal and destructive person- for the purpose of putting an end to the banner [i.e. the call] to Tawheed and the Sunnah!! He [may Allaah have mercy upon him] was murdered on a Friday at the hands of one of the young Kharijites with the support of the people of misguidance. Everyone kept quiet about it. However, Safar al-Hawali claimed that it was fitnah in which Allaah saved their hands and tongues from [involvement]! This is a statement of truth by way of which falsehood is intended, for they did not speak with truth; rather (they did) the opposite and their tongues were not saved from keeping quiet about falsehood; rather they spoke with falsehood from the angle of not speaking truth- out of forsaking [Ahlus Sunnah], hiding and defending those whom they have praised for a very long time, such as Hikmatiyaar, Sayyaaf Rabbaanee and those affiliated with them, whose defects were exposed, their resentment towards Tawheed and its people. (2)

Al-Allaamah Rabee Bin Haadee Al Madkhalee [may Allaah have mercy upon him] said, “We do not say that there are people of ijtihaad amongst ahlul bidah because they are followers of desires, and Allaah and His Messenger have testified to this. The misguided innovator stirs up discord and errs, and then says to you, ‘This is ijtihaad’. And when Hikmatiyaar and the misguided parties (in Afghanistan) murdered Shaikh Jameel Ur-Rahmaan, they said, ‘This is ijtihaad’. Making lawful the spilling of the blood of the Salafis is ijtihaad to them! This is what it is, they (ahlul bidah) do not fall upon an affair of misguidance or a calamity except that they say, ‘This is ijtihaad’. This is a dilution of Islaam, mixing falsehood, misguidance and bidah with truth when the mistakes of the (real scholars of ijtihaad) for which they are rewarded are placed at the same level with innovation in religion about which the Messenger [sallal-laahu-alayhi-wasallam] has informed us that it leads to the fire”.

Which Category of Insolent Liars and Fakers Does Muhammad Hijaab and His Ilk Belong To?!

Read this quote from Al-Allaamah Rabee and Reflect Upon The Affair of Muhammad Hijaab!

Quote: “Wherever the adherents to the Salafi methodology and its students are or wherever they go, then it is obligated on them to step up and aid one another to raise the word of truth, Tawheed and Sunnah; subdue bidah, misguidance and doubts; establish Allaah’s proofs against all the various misguided people, make known the reality of the liars and the fakers. And they should know that the opponents against the truth have reached the highest level of plotting and planning, and from this is their preoccupation with the task of silencing many amongst Ahlus Sunnah and the adherents to truth, and restraining them from confronting the falsehood that is covered in the garb of truth. This category of people amongst the adherents to falsehood are more severe in employing lies, duplicity and pretending to possess that which they do not possess; so they are just as the Messenger [sallal laahu alayhi wasallam] stated, “The one who pretends that he has been given what he has not been given, is just like the (false) one who wears two garments of falsehood”.

So, we find them as ones who praise the people of falsehood the most and making their affair to appear pleasing, whilst they are the most severe in speaking ill against the adherents to the truth and its callers. Indeed, they have set up corrupt principles to aid falsehood and the adherents to misguided methodologies; waging war against the adherents to truth by devising plots and repugnant affairs, manifesting their hatred and enmity against the adherents to truth and hastening- without boredom and tiredness – to instruct the youth to oppose the people of truth, striving hard to aid falsehood and topple the adherents to truth. We ask Allaah [تبارك وتعالى ] to raise His Word and guide these people or relieve the Ummah from their evil. Indeed, our Lord is One who hears invocation. And may Allaah’s peace and blessings be upon our Sayyid Muhammad, his family and companions until the day of judgement”. (1)

This is why the elder students embarked upon fulfilment of this great Fardu Kifaayah – by the Tawfeeq of Allaah – and exposed Muhammad Hijaab’s falsehood.
